Hello list!
I've been out of sight doing some hard and dirty coding on old,
20-years old mainframes for the past weeks :P
Anyway, returning to this new and shinny century, check my comments below:

I hope your idea is using GemPlugin to hook in the URI the commands
similar to the ones used my mongrel_rails.
I was thinking more in just "mongrel" and create some validators that
analyze the working directory to check if its rails, nitro/og or
camping folder structure or could force to one of them.
Also, I want to contribute and participate, any hope? :-)

I hope you're joking, right? Remembering 1 version number schema is
difficult right now, 2 in the same product name??? Oh, also the
"Enterprise" and what about "Professional" part of the name?.
If you aren't a guy with big bucks and a big jacuzzi, use the Pro
version instead, of couse...
Later,

take that personal. :-D
